Nothing like sitting outside of my work in my car watching this video. Peter I hope you know, you’re the reason I got into photography and you’ve helped me through a lot.
Thank you! I appreciate it!!
That’s the most relatable comment 😂
Excellent story! Love bnw !
Lol, I just got off my lunch break and am doing the same thing 😂
@@IamPhant0m I pulled into work and I looked at my phone and was like thank god I got here early
Pete discovers snap photography. This is like a lambo driver discovering the bicycle.
Sounds like a great life lesson; slow down, be intentional, make choices wisely! Cheers Pete!
I am a programmer and not a photographer, but still, I've got goosebumps watching this video because I want to go on a journey like this and experience the joy you get through photography.
Thanks for the video, Peter.
bro we literally living the same life😂😂
I'm not even a photographer but I really really appreciate the medium of film. There's something about it
It's better than digital
You are the real goat!
i’m so thrilled for the new era of Peter’s videos. i absolutely love the new style and the new office
Loving these black and whites and the natural film grain on it... and that shot of the Eiffel Tower was just splendid! 🖤🤍
Pete! I can't even begin to tell you how pumped I am that you're diving back into film. So stoked.
Good for you Peter. The excitement you're feeling is genuinely palpable through the screen. Really happy for you! Can't wait to see more!
Gotta say, Pete -- I've really been loving these film videos. They're truly my favorite videos you've posted in a long time. I also jumped back in -- all in -- to film about 5 months ago, and you so accurately describe what it feels like, and to see this kind of excitement from someone with such an immense body of work like your own is refreshing. The intention and the anticipation is everything, and makes the craft of making a photograph so much more enjoyable.
I've been doing street photograpy for over a year now and I honestly it feels exactly like you mentioned. The excitement and confidence you need. The eye to catch that one moment. The stroies and ofcourse all the people. It is such a beautiful and fulfiling form of art. I want to continue and grow and hopefully bring more stories of ordinary people on the streets to light.
This channel gets better and better😏 But Pete, you push to be better, and that alone is going to propel you further in this art and in this life🥰
That did in fact, make me crack a smile.
Been here since the beginning.
Still here...
Will always be here.
To all the film shooters out there, that started shooting film before 2020, how does it feel to see one of the biggest yt creators in the world, enjoying the uniqueness of film? For me it's like watching myself react to my first roll! It's priceless!
2020? Try 1975, LOL. How do I feel? meh who gives a ratz arse
Pete, your enthusiasm and professionalism shines through every time. The honesty, the uncertainty are compelling and make your experiences so relatable. Keep pushing on, excited to see where this journey takes you.
Black and white photography is the heart of photography. I am a bnw photographer.
Im starting photography, actually took my first ones today and your channel is the reason im starting! Keep up the amazing stuff man
Fantastic Peter... you said we would be seeing less of you but the quality of your videos would go up and you are delivering on the promise. Super engaging videos lately.
Peter, this is probably my favorite video from you. It's real and honest and it actually made me blow the dust off a 1950's 35mm Leica I had sitting doing nothing. I share your excitement in shooting film. Thank you.
You found a way to reboot your series in a way. I can feel your excitement.
Hey Pete! I watched 1 video of yours a year ago. Felt your passion and instantly got inspired. I got camera gear and started shooting. Definitely struggled to capture a solid photo but continued to shoot and follow your journey. Thank you for giving me a new adventure!
Peter, you got me into photography when I was getting interested in videography. I made the decision to jump to film about two years ago and I’m just getting started. Seeing you rediscovering film right as I am is pretty cool. Gives me more film UA-cam content I thirst for.
Nothing hits like just sitting back and hearing pete talk, the music, the content, the love for the medium...it all hits different!
Pete, I’ve been following you for years and you’ve been such an inspiration. I’ve been shooting photography for 15 years now and at times have lost the spark. Videos like this one pump me back up so much!
You inspire many my brother. Many thanks owed to you. 🙏
I love that I got into film photography around the same time. Feels like I’m learning with Pete and I love the community 😁
Shooting film has given you a new medium for creative and evocative expression. Peter, your film photography has a nostalgic feel that resonates with a different time and place. Beautiful timeless travel imagery.
Photography is truly one of those crafts that you can never get tired of.
Awesome video Pete! It's inspiring to see evening the biggest creators on the platform still growing and evolving their skill sets .
i like how you keep walking out of you confort zone and wanting to constantly learn... that's my mindset too but seeing you succeed in that is a huge push for me
thank you buddy
Definitely cracked a smile. Thanks Pete. Such an inspiration. You are such a bright light. Never let anyone or anything dim that. Hope you have a wonderful day man 😁
Almost makes we want to try film again. Brings back so many good memories. There was something special about having to wait for your photos to be processed.
This is so cool. Love the feel you're getting. I'm old enough to remember real film situations... thank you for telling this story.
These last two videos have been truly inspirational! Thanks, PM.
I recently bought a Olympus OM10. And I’m loving the experience of film photography. All the points you have mentioned Peter, I agree with 100%. Shooting film makes me more excited than digital
I love that he bought a real candle after going back to film
I hope your being a new champion of film, slowing down, and even street photography brings in a new era of film shooters. Your work in Paris is amazing and you def showed the greatness of HP5.
"Keep learning the craft that is photography."
So. Much. This. I've immersed myself in what I consider to be the top in their genre. (PM included 😁) and I've just been watching, and taking images of my own to practice the LR/PS techniques, trying to make them somehow my own. Been working on my compositions too. Making them tell more of a story. Making them breathe with life, I am developing (hehe) a new type of relationship with my subjects. (none of which, speak)
Youve upped the game in 2023, man. Your work is maturing. Your style is evolving. I for one, love it. It's massively inspiring to folks like me, to see someone of Peter McKinnon's caliber can still be learning. Thanks, man. I appreciate you.
Oh man, this video is so good! I’m so excited to see this growth in your work, though it’s just a little unfair your first roll was so good! I remember watching your original street photography video. This one is exactly what I wanted to see back then.
I hate this video's vibe. It pulls up my insecurities,anxieties,sorrow,old memories. I don't know why. This vibe took me into long past times🥺❤️
Film photography can take you down so many interesting paths. You can get deep in to developing your own color and black and white film, trying caffenol, darkroom printing, alternative printing processes. Large format film, tintypes... the list goes on.
This is growth and I’m so glad I am here for this journey. It’s amazing to see you not settle for your past niches and to push into another medium and discover the world again
Good stuff PM...after 3 decades, I share your "still learning" spark. Its what keeps us engaged. Have a great weekend my friend...
this video on itself, feels like it was shot on film, it is raw, direct raw conversation, storytelling 10 minutes about something so natural for this kind of art
Gina Payne from Van Life With Gina sent us your way! Said you are an inspiration!! 1st time seeing a video & she speaks truth 👍👍
Sending Aloha from Kauai, Hawaii
Dude, seeing you saying “P-Whatsup” with log hair again just gives me such great throwbacks to the old days. Keep it up man!!!
Highly appreciate your videos. Not a fan of shooting film myself, but I enjoy seeing your new passion for it.
I love seeing people getting into film photography. It is what reignited the flame for me after years and years od shooting digital. I’m looking forward to more film content from you Peter :)

Thank you for all you do! You’re videos have helped and inspired me as I have grown my photography business!
This is just a silly little thing, but one thing I've picked up in my traveling with gear is the realization that I'm never going to use a whole roll of tape for something - if you take a run of tape (even if it's waaay more than you think you'll need) and just roll it up solo with no core, or around a sharpie/pen you're also packing, it saves even more space!
Nothing made me happier today than getting a notification for this video. Thank you Pete.
I will always use digital for my professional work, but film is therapeutic, intentional and just special. No spray and pray, picking the best of 40 pictures of the same thing…you take a photo, just one and put more into it
Thanks for sharing your journey, it's very interesting to see a different style! I like those pictures very much!
Really cool portrait of your friend.
film , a medium that still has the excitement we get when we get the perfect shot in digital or in this case all the 36 exposures are focused and exposed proper , film is a medium that helps us slow down... quite .... literally . Thanx pete for the reminder amazing photos cant wait for the photos on Instagram
😍
Awesome to see you find a new inspiration in photography with film. Great photos & epic story telling as usual 🤙🏼
I've been following you since 2019 and still get toutched by your work. Man, you are an inspiration for me. Keep going
Man, what a great video. Because of you I take my camera everywhere! Love the recent content on film photography, those captures are something else 👊🏾
Thank you for the video, I'm 54 years old and there is nothing else better than learning Photography with film.
I agree, you tend to put more thought in each picture. Love BW
So so hyped you found back to film photography!! Love it, keep up the great work Peter :D
I so relate, Peter. I’ve been shooting for 40 years, and EVERY SINGLE night I go to sleep, I’m thinking about what I want to shoot next. It’s the best passion in the world. And cars. Love cars.
I remember shooting black and white film back in the day and had my own darkroom in my bedroom. Developed my own film and prints. It was so much fun.
that start with "phhwaatss upp everybody" was nostalgic man❣❣
I totally agree with the point that Paris helps a lot with the contextualization of these B&W and I would love to see you rockin this camera in a city like Toronto. I'm pretty sure you would be able to capture amazing moments as well!!
Film reignited my passion for photography for ALL the reasons you touched on here!
• value each picture more
• learn from mistakes (some out of your control)
• look at the world differently
glad to know you are getting to photography for yourself and as far as i remember your wife planted seed to realise this. really happy.
I had the same experience Pete. I was shooting 72 pictures while in Split, Croatia and I am loving every single one of it meaning I would share them with the world!
Thankyou Peter, you inspired me alot, been doing videos ever since, learned alot from your work, keep on doing what you're doing❤
I quite recently got back into film photography myself (and started uploading videos about my journey here on YT - wink wink) and I agree with everything you say, Peter! The slower paced, more intentional type of photography is such a fresh breeze. Sadly prices for film photography is steadily increasing, but props to you for helping bring it back. Cheers for a fantastic video bud, and can't wait to see more! /Freddy
Can't wait to see more!
Leica Q is the gateway drug to the Leica M, whether that be digital or film. The viewfinder experience with its manual focus patch focusing brings intentional thought to photography as well. Love seeing this, Peter.
i was struggling with a creatively block, trying to edit a film i’ve been working on for so long.. i was so overwhelmed with music, sfx, color grading fancy speed ramping transitions.. i was taking a break and noticed this video in my notifications i said why not clear my mind.. and this video was therapy for me.. it’s not about photography or film or exposure. it’s the fact that the video is soooo relaxing , not thinking about anything just peter talking about how he experienced the very first form of photography after years of shooting digital. it shows how he matured into the artist he is today and that’s really really inspiring seeing him go from the guy vlogging in an airport with a 1dx ii to someone who simply uses a small camera and 3 rolls of film and makes a whole video talking about how he feels towards his new hobby, far far away from the technical stuff, composition…
This is why I lean towards film more than digital. I shoot digital for pro work, imagine the cost doing events today with film. Shooting film is more a mental exercise for me when I do personal work or documenting life and the mundane. It helps me pause and observe with intent and makes me contemplate how I can become the same in my everyday life.
love the struggle and the richness of the transition to this years pete!
Bloody love watching this, I’ve also gone to film watching others learn at the same time is so helpful thanks Pete for being an inspiration to us all. ❤
I am resonating with your videos so much more now then ever before. It sucks that it’s not as frequent but I understand why now. Quality over quantity, this was perfect! Thank you for what you do Pete !
I love shooting film. It takes patience and practice. And on those light leaks you had in a few photos were the exact definition of a beautiful mistake.
Glad you're now into film photography! Keep it coming! 👍
Love your work man
Absolutely loved the ambient music in this!
Thank you for the intro! Def made me smile. Great video as always
Realy inspiring approach to photography and a great way to slow down, when you go out to shoot.
What a video, truly love it. So inspiring!
I feel like your in such harmony with life in this exciting chapter of your life! Love the content!
Yeah you're right, the intro made me smile 🤌🏽
For anyone else just starting to get into film try the light meter app on your on your phone. It very quickly helped train my brain on the appropriate settings for each shot and probably rescued a lot of images I would’ve otherwise messed up
I just spent my last 2 semester at college in the darkroom, and it made me such a better photographer. Such a fun craft! You should do some videos on double exposures
Thank you so much for making very clear at the beginning of the video what street photography is and what it is not. Especially nowadays when everyone calls himself a streetphotographer but takes photos of buildings. Thank you so much
You went from dabbling in film to M6 owner lightning fast.
man i'm just getting into film so its really cool to see someone like you also dipping into film. and you should totally get joe on the channel, him, matt day, vuhlandes were some of the people whose content got me interested in film and photography
Been wanting a new vid! Thanks for supplying it, oh and on one of my favorite kinds of photography LETS GOOOO.
I'm a little late to the video but this gets me so excited! Been following your journey for quite a while now and all of these years I've loved film photography since those are my roots in photography itself, and watching you reconnect with film is something I didn't know I would be so excited to follow. Today I have the opportunity to work with film everyday of my life and it amazes me every time, thank you so much for sharing this Pete!

I cracked a smile at the start! Nostalgia :) loving this new 'pete shooting film' chapter. the paris photos are beyond beautiful, and the rainy eiffel tower shot... *chefs kiss. thanks for being so inspiring man
Absolutely great peter 👊🏾🔥
That’s a heart to heart conversation! ❤️
Keep cranking them out Pete👌 Thanks for sharing mate.
Crazy thing with film vs digital for me is this:
Digital: Wow, I nailed that shot, sharp and crisp, perfect composition. Get home and look at it on the big screen. Meh, it's ok but not as good as I thought it would be.
Film: Damn, I think I mistimed that shot and I think my setting were a bit off. Get it developed, scan it and look at it on the big screen. OMFG, that looks amazing. Best photo I ever made.
I love shooting film. The first roll I shot was when I first moved to LA and it was such a scary, hectic and crazy fun time and that roll of film has some of my favorite photos. They’re not great photos, but they’re my favorite photos because I specifically was shooting raw moments in film. I need to shoot more film. Godspeed Peter. Thank you for your videos
Thanks for this. Appreciate the focus on the experience of using film over the gear.
I love this dive into film please keep it up man. Long time fan ❤
Thank you for creating.
I started shooting on film in 2nd grade in the mid 60’s, welcome to the world of keeping it simple and getting it right without the benefit of automatic bracketing or the rapid fire equivalent of having a very expensive motor drive.
I often suggest that those totally new to photography start learning with pre digital era books on photography, learning, understanding and mastering the basics, since DSLRs give newbies not only many ways to get confused, but IMO way more ways to screw up an image than a SLR ever could… unless you did something dumb like forget to set the ISO or open the camera back before rewinding the film. lol, I just reached the part in this vid where you did exactly that.
I really enjoy your channel, you provide a very entertaining way of presenting all that stuff I need to know to master present day photography tech. After all, back in the day, to truly be a photographer, one had to master the art of darkroom science, as well as pushing, dodging and burning. In some ways, the tech took the fun and reward out of the results.
edit: today everyone basically has a camera, in the shoot on film days, it was not common at all.
